After saying goodbye to the two elders, Xu Qianniang took one last look at Ye Qingze standing to the side and said in a soft voice, "Brother Ye, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you before and almost hurt you."
"This is also my fault. I should have reminded you to go back earlier." Ye Qingze felt very guilty.
That day, he only wanted to get rid of Xu Qianniang as soon as possible to avoid others seeing her clinging to him and causing misunderstandings. He never expected that... Xu Qianniang would be murdered.
If... if he had hardened his heart and reprimanded Xu Qianniang the first time, cutting off all her hopes, would... these things not have happened?
"It was my own fault for being too willful. Knowing that you didn't like me, I still kept bothering you, which gave the villain an opportunity." Xu Qianniang said, still somewhat unwilling to give up, "Brother Ye, you...you really never liked me?"
Ye Qingze knew she was going to be reincarnated. Thinking of everything she had suffered before, he felt a little sorry for her. He wanted to say a few words against his will to comfort her, but then he heard Jiang Xianya's voice.
"If you like someone, you like them; if you don't, you don't. Don't lie to her. She's about to be reincarnated. If you lie to her, you'll incur karma. Maybe... after she's reincarnated, she'll come back to you in ten or twenty years. Do you want to remain chaste for her and marry her as your wife in ten or twenty years, or take her as a concubine?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingze quickly shook his head: "I'm sorry, Miss Xu, I only regard you as a younger sister, and I have never had any romantic feelings for you."
Upon hearing this, Xu Qianniang gave Jiang Xianya a resentful look before saying, "Then please, Miss Jiang, send me to be reincarnated."
Jiang Xianya nodded, set up a table under the big locust tree, lit incense and burned paper money to help Xu Qianniang pass on to the afterlife, and summoned ghost messengers to send her to be reincarnated.
She had calculated that helping Xu Qianniang reincarnate would accumulate good fortune for Ye Qingze. In addition, the Ye family was a family that accumulated good deeds, and their good fortune was about to arrive. Her cousin would definitely pass the imperial examination.
Because Ye Qingze and the tailor Xu had used the talisman Jiang Xianya had given them, they could see everything clearly.
It turns out that after a person dies, ghost messengers really do come and take their soul away to be reincarnated.
The two ghost messengers didn't seem as scary as I had imagined.
Their fear of death is not as deep anymore.
"Miss Jiang... can Qian Niang be our daughter again in the next life?" Xu the tailor asked, looking at Jiang Xianya with anticipation.
"Although the malevolent aura on Qianniang has been eliminated and I have cleansed her soul, she was still manipulated and had her essence drained, which is detrimental to her karma. After arriving in the underworld, she will not be reincarnated immediately. Although she will not suffer in the eighteen levels of hell, she will still have to do some things. It will take some time before she can be reincarnated. One day in the underworld is equivalent to one year in the human world."
Jiang Xianya smiled and said, "You two are kind-hearted and have more than twenty years of life left. You will be reincarnated before Qianniang. If you want her to be your daughter again in the next life, I have a way."
"What method?" the two asked hurriedly.
“When you get back, take good care of Qianniang’s memorial tablet, keep the incense burning continuously, and talk to her about what happened when she was a child. Tell her that you still want her to be your daughter in the next life. In time, it will naturally work,” Jiang Xianya said softly.
The two were thrilled to hear this and kept thanking her, saying, "Thank you so much, Miss Jiang, thank you so much, Miss Jiang."
Their daughter was murdered, and her soul was taken away by the ghost messengers. Xu the tailor and his wife felt empty inside and had no idea how to live their lives from now on.
After hearing Jiang Xianya's words, the two of them suddenly felt hopeful for the future.
As long as they do as Miss Jiang says, they can be Qianniang's parents again in their next life, and the three of them can be happily together again.
Watching the Xu tailor and his wife rushing back to prepare the memorial tablet, Ye Qingze felt somewhat bewildered.
"Let's go, it's almost midnight, let's head back." Jiang Xianya said, then walked quickly forward.
"Cousin, are you lying to them?" Ye Qingze asked in a low voice.
“It’s not exactly deception, because the method I suggested does work. However… their connection with Xu Qianniang is already very shallow. We can’t force it. We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate,” Jiang Xianya said in a low voice.
"Does my cousin have a way to make Xu Qianniang be their daughter again in her next life?" Ye Qingze asked curiously.
"The method I just told them is just doing our best and leaving the rest to fate. Actually, there is a better way to ensure that Xu Qianniang can continue to be their daughter in the next life, but... because it is forced, so... she may not have a good end." Jiang Xianya shook her head and said.
Not to mention Xu Qianniang, even the Xu tailor and his wife will not be destined to be husband and wife in their next life.
Therefore... we cannot force it.
Jiang Xianya was simply giving them hope, which would not only allow the couple to live well, but also to do their best and leave the rest to fate.
Perhaps in their next life, they can be husband and wife again, and Xu Qianniang can be their daughter again.
Whether it can be achieved depends on whether fate is willing to grant our wish.
Anyway, when she went through her tribulations in her previous life, that damned God really tricked her.
This world is clearly no longer large enough to accommodate someone who can fly, yet the Dao of Heaven gives people the illusion that they can ascend, which is why she tried it regardless of everything.
As a result, his physical body was destroyed, and he almost lost his soul.
So... in this life, she must live freely and unrestrainedly, never return to the Taiyi Sect, and never think about attaining immortality again.
She just wanted to live a peaceful and uneventful life.
"So you were lying when you said Xu Qianniang wanted to be my wife and concubine?" Ye Qingze asked, blushing.
“If you say you like her, it will come true. Don’t believe me? Try it!” Jiang Xianya said with a mysterious expression.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingze quickly shook his head.
"Xianya, Qingze, you're back." Zhou and the others had been waiting at the door with torches in hand. When they saw Jiang Xianya and Ye Qingze return, they quickly came to greet them.
"How did things go? Will Xu Qianniang come looking for trouble again?" Zhou asked cautiously, holding Jiang Xianya's hand.
"The matter has been resolved. Xu Qianniang has gone to the underworld to be reincarnated and will no longer bother my cousin. From today onwards, everyone can sleep peacefully without worrying," Jiang Xianya said with a smile.
"That's good." Zhou breathed a long sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Everyone else was relieved.
"It's getting late, everyone should go and get some rest," Jiang Xianya said with a smile.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Everyone stayed up all night last night and felt exhausted today. It's already late at night, and everyone is just trying to stay awake. They've been wanting to go to sleep for a long time.
"Xianya, are you hurt?" Ye Miaoyun came over and took Jiang Xianya's hand, checking her over as she asked.
"No, Mother, don't worry. It's just a ritual to help people pass on to the afterlife. It's a small matter." Jiang Xianya shook her head with a smile.
"That's good." Ye Miaoyun nodded and pulled Jiang Xianya back into the house.
Qi Jiu watched the mother and daughter's retreating figures, wanting to say something, but ultimately decided against it.
